There are a lot of actors out there who don’t have an arena to present their stuff.
I don’t know if a pro wrestling career prepares you for Hollywood. When you get out there, and you’re in an arena for 20,000 people or 90,000 people, it’s a lot different than being on a quiet set with 100 people, so I think you get used to dealing with cameras.
It’s just like any job. We’re either in the arena or working out during certain hours of the day, but you have other hours for things that you want to do during the day as a human being, and for me, maybe I don’t go shopping. Maybe I go into my backyard and throw against a net.
I’ve good memories of fighting at the Echo Arena. It’s been a happy hunting ground for me in the past.

One day. I was putting on a hill in Zurich, and a few hundred yards away, Diana Ross was doing a sound test at an arena for a performance that night of ‘Take My Breath Away,’ my song with her. That was a very nice game, an incredible feeling.

Every now and then, Prince decides to try being a normal rock star. You know, the kind who does a professional arena tour where he plays the hits. But part of what makes him such an eternally fascinating star is that he lives in his own private purple world, even when he sets out to make the house quake.
In season, and on game days, you are so used to shoot-around, going back home to eat lunch and sleep and then coming back to the arena for the game. Or you come and practice and then you rest.

But I leave the arena late in games specifically because I don’t want anyone to see my psychology.
As a trial lawyer, intelligence is important only in the sense that it allows you to play the game, if you will. Without it, you don’t even have a ticket into the competitive arena. But beyond that, it doesn’t get you very far at all.
Confidence comes in going on personal journeys in a public arena and feeling as though you have a right to do that. You have to give yourself permission to discover what you need to discover and not worry about how pretty the journey is. If you’re aware of the pretty, you’re not going to dig into the mess.

The United States provides Israel with crucial security and economic aid and invaluable political backing in the international arena.
Like prospecting in the 19th century, reconnaissance of the asteroids would of necessity take place in an arena where trouble is likely and help is distant. Heroic stories of individual triumph and failure, set on landscapes never seen by humankind, are in the cards.
I know this: Jerry Jones is unique, he’s as cool as James Bond and he has a command of his business. He can step into any arena and succeed.
I’ve been to Vector Arena, and I’ve seen it. I’ve stood in the middle and just appreciated the space, appreciated the volume of the place.

We used to approach a small 400-person show like an arena show, as if I was a star and I was coming out on stage in front of screaming people and that I was to be larger than life.
When I walk into the arena, I get excited and emotional, when I see the fans rise and start cheering. But then I get into the ring and it’s all business for me.

We’re very proud of our business relationship, it’s been very special for 20 years. Who can say that? It makes me shake my head sometimes driving to the rink, because I’m still excited to see Tessa at the arena for warmup.
My efforts to join the fight against breast cancer all began around the fact that women were getting short-changed in the medical arena.
I don’t think I was ever designed to be a ubiquitous worldwide star. I’m a singer-songwriter writing quite personal songs. You’re not supposed to chuck me on a stage with bells and whistles. There was a struggle ahead after that happened, and perhaps I was trying to write songs to compete in that arena.
You can’t be a losing team and get a new arena. That’s not fair. That’s not fair! That’s how I see it.

My wife’s name, Rebecca Lobo, is on sandwiches and street signs in New England. It adorns the arena rafters at the University of Connecticut, where she first became a basketball star. Her high school in Massachusetts is on Rebecca Lobo Way, a nice trump card to play at reunions.
No one has ever done the Echo Arena, and I’m a Scouser. The momentum I’ve got and the way MMA is growing in the city and the way MMA fans are – Scousers, as individual fans, are just amazing – it doesn’t matter who it’s against.
Maybe guys also have insecurities, but in a sporting arena, they keep it to themselves. I can’t do that.
Bands like Culture Club and artists like me, you tend to concentrate on the live arena because that’s where you can be your most authentic. That’s where you have the most power.
Every year’s going to be a what-if. That’s the game of basketball. What if a guy turns his ankle? What if a guy gets in a car wreck coming to the arena? There are so many different aspects that could happen that nobody knows. Only the man upstairs knows.
